Nvidia CEO's affair with suspected spy triggers US probes

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang's extramarital affair with a Chinese businesswoman suspected of spying for Beijing has triggered investigations in the US, raising national security concerns over sensitive AI technology. The controversy has drawn scrutiny from Congress, the Justice Department, and Nvidia's board, with President Donald Trump weighing in. The woman, Alice Huang, is a former executive at Singapore-based cloud computing company Megaspeed, which faced Commerce Department scrutiny last year over alleged export law violations and routing advanced Nvidia chips to Chinese users. The Justice Department's National Security Division is investigating whether Megaspeed violated export control laws, including scrutiny of Alice Huang. Trump said he spoke with Huang as the scandal grew, expressing confidence he would be "in good shape." Nvidia's board said it found no evidence of compromised national security or company secrets, while Beijing dismissed the spy allegations as "smears."
